Hey man i suggest that use this method for running your window in maya:
class YourClass():
....
def getMainWindow():
mainWindow = QtGui.QApplication.activeWindow()
while True:
lastWin = mainWindow.parent()
if lastWin:
mainWindow = lastWin
else:
break
return mainWindow
def show():
win = YourClass(parent=getMainWindow())
win.show()
about your menu, just i can say put path of userSetup.py in your PYTHONPATH
